Took me too long to find this thread again...
I came to the conclusion I like the lyrics in "Empty As a House". At first I've thought "Empty as a house with nothing in..." is the laziest simile ever from Mac, but now I think this song is a lovely essay about families from Mac's unique way of articulating.
BTW, always liked the lyrics to Raindrops On The Sun (against all the other opinions on its lyrics here). It really reminds me of "Don't Know When, But a Day Is Gonna Come" by Bright Eyes, which was a very pivotal song to me from when I first heard it.
